Canceled Too Soon #259 | The Idiot Box (1991)
About this episode
When he wasn't going on excellent adventures and bogus journeys, years before he became a celebrated documentarian, Alex Winter was pushing the boundaries of comedy with THE IDIOT BOX!
On an all-new episode of CANCELED TOO SOON, William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold take their own time machine back to the early 1990s, when MTV was on the cutting edge and Alex Winter died on camera almost every week! Is THE IDIOT BOX a forgotten sketch comedy classic? How many parts of it have aged very, very badly? Did you know future Oscar-nominee John Hawkes was in this series?
And was it... CANCELED TOO SOON?
